    can someone post a picture of a cj5 with a bikini top? I ordered one for my jeep but is not clear where the 2 footman loops included in the package of hardware go. I assume they are to tie the 2 straps to but am unsure where they attach on the vehicle. Thanks

    I put mine on the inside leading edge of the tub. There isn't a "correct" location as this wasn't a factory deal. Pull the straps down and find a place you like..

    You can see where it is on my dads 5 based on where the straps come down. youll get the idea. like patrick said almost anything will work and its preference but i have always seen them on top of the wheel well a couple inches forward of the back of the tub. I'll take a picture later. My 5 just has a ubolt through the back of the tub and it works fine. its just ugly.

    Me too. Works good, easy to access, and out of the way for the most part.

    So it's not the best illustration, but the bikini top is installed.

    thanks guys, I mounted them like most others said, on top of the tub rail just forward of the corners.
